America’s Big Hero

(Brother Meng, it’s more than 1700. It’s not enough to get 250 votes after 4 days. This is too little. It’s embarrassing to say it...)

Sean's plan really left a group of people in Luni speechless.

Just a threat, a threat from Chiguoguo.

Originally, I thought about using Indonesia as a shield, but now it seems that it is useless.

This guy doesn't pay attention to the Indonesians at all.

So, what now?

Here in Wuni, the reason why King Jiji is so resistant to this maritime defense agreement is that the country in Wuni is actually very stable.

In terms of rights, King Jiji also speaks for himself, which is completely different from the situation in Sri Lanka.

The reason why President Sri Lanka agreed so readily was because the Tigers were watching from the north, Asan was sowing discord in the west, and the opposition party was waiting in the middle. President Sri Lanka needed Sean, an external force, to consolidate his power and status.

And none of these are needed by King Gigi.

He also didn't want to invite such a great god over. As we all know, it's easier to invite a god than to give it away.

It has only been a few years since Luni officially became independent, and the British have just been driven away. They really don't want to bring another American over.

The problem now is that it's a bit difficult to say no to Sean.

Everything has two sides. Some things cannot be dealt with by the state and must be handled privately.

If the United States wants to forcibly open a military base here, there is still a way to appeal to the international community, and many anti-American forces will support it.

But now this is a private company, and it is difficult for other countries to intervene.

Of course, if Sean is not an American or an American company, it is still possible to intervene.

But Sean is exactly that, if other countries intervene, then the United States will definitely give Xiao En a platform.

First, we must maintain a consistent tough attitude. Second, Rockefeller is one of the masters of the United States. If he is targeted for no reason, that will definitely not work.

"It seems that you don't have any opinions, so it's settled!" Xiao En saw that a group of people were silent, so he smiled and made a decision for everyone.

"That's not good, it's really too much for the people of Luni." King Jiji said quickly.

"Don't worry, I won't be so rude. In order to win the national defense orders of Luni, my umbrella company will show our strength in front of customers, conduct a naval exercise, and show our sincerity to the employer!" Sean stretched out his hand and slapped Snap your fingers, just another way of saying it, he is good at it!

"Uh..." King Jiji really had nothing to say now.

They are in the name of giving potential employers the whole job, what can they do!

I didn't burn the oil of your mud.

"I said, King Jiji, instead of talking so much with me here, you should think about how to get back the Limbang area!" Sean's face gradually turned cold, "There is nothing that can't be solved by spending money. If there is , then you just haven’t spent enough!”

"12 billion, cash, if you can get it out, I'll help you get rid of Lin Meng!"

Hearing this, King Jiji's face instantly collapsed, 12 billion, why don't you grab it!

That's the end of a meeting.

Sean was very happy, but Muni was a little awkward.

However, this is not what Sean needs to consider.

Without wasting any time on Luni's side, Sean boarded the battleship that afternoon and continued to head towards Xingcheng.

On the other side, two warships that were refitted and maintained were also launched.

It's not that the workers in the United States finally learned 996, but that the shipyard's business volume was insufficient, and the three warships started repairs almost at the same time. The reason why the Kunz-class guided missile destroyer was launched ahead of schedule was because this warship was already in service. middle.

In recent years, the domestic shipbuilding industry in the United States has indeed encountered great difficulties.

On the one hand, due to the increasingly frequent international exchanges, the international shipbuilding and shipping industries generally show an upward trend.

On the one hand, the shipbuilding industries of Benzi and Bangzi developed rapidly.

Europe also maintains a strong competitiveness, while the United States developed a large-scale shipbuilding industry during World War II, especially warships.

But after the war, a large number of warships were idled and forced to be converted into merchant ships.

At the same time that the military's orders have dropped several times, the overall operating rate of the US shipbuilding industry is seriously insufficient, workers' wages, venues, logistics and other expenses are high, and workers go on strike from time to time in order to raise wages...

At the same time, most of the orders in the international market are merchant ships. The technology of the book and the stick can fully undertake this kind of commercial orders, coupled with its own strong price advantage and good service attitude.

This led to further deterioration of the shipbuilding industry in the United States itself.

However, this has little to do with Sean, on the contrary, he is happy to see the results.

He also has a shipyard plan with Bahrain. Speaking of which, Sean has almost forgotten about it.

Thinking of this, Sean quickly asked Lorraine to remember it, and by the way, notify Norris to talk to Todd Shipyard about purchasing second-hand equipment.

The Todd Shipyard used to be one of the construction factories of the Keeling-class guided missile destroyer. The technology and equipment are very advanced, even today after 40 years.

He still remembered that there was a strike at Todd Shipyard a year ago, so it should have been a mess.

After explaining the matter, Sean sighed heavily again.

It's hard to be rich!

There are so many things!

...

Regarding Xiao En's visit with a battleship again, Xingcheng's side was completely flat.

Hong Kong Island is not recruited, and Nai compromises, what can Xingcheng do?

It is already very difficult for a country dominated by Chinese to gain a foothold in Southeast Asia.

Whether it is Malay or Indonesia, the surroundings are actually hostile to the Chinese, and Xingcheng occupies such a good geographical location.

It is not an exaggeration to say that we are trying to survive in the cracks.

Don't expect any help from the rabbit side!

The rabbit itself has been vigilant by countries such as Europe, the United States and even the Soviet Union, and has been taking various blockade measures against them.

The rabbit can withstand it, but for Xingcheng, they can't bear the damage just by AOE sweep.

Besides, they are all Chinese-dominated national systems. If they get close, they will definitely be substantially affected. Who will listen to when the time comes?

Therefore, in order to survive, Xingcheng must approach the west, hug the thighs of the Americans, and flatter the British.

In this case, how can you challenge Sean! ?

Faced with this situation, Xingcheng simply held the welcoming ceremony again, welcoming Xiao En's battleship to his own naval base.

A group of leaders held a grand welcome ceremony again, looking at the behemoth, it would be a lie to say that they are not envious!

Meet, shake hands, exchange greetings, take pictures...

After a whole set of welcome ceremony, beyond Xingcheng's expectations, Xiao En didn't even mention the order for the coastal defense.

What Xiao En considers is that the cake should be eaten bite by bite, so as not to cause all-out confrontation from several countries such as Indonesia and Malay, and the gain outweighs the gain.

It will be very difficult for Xingcheng to object after he wins the mud.

So, at the tea party in the evening, Sean changed the subject and said, "I saw that our Xingcheng side is expanding the port on a large scale and preparing to vigorously develop the container transshipment business."

Li Zhilong frowned slightly. As Li Gyao's son, he is now the Minister of Trade and Industry of Xingcheng.

He is responsible for receiving Sean, and it happens that he is also responsible for this business.

The rapid development of the container business is inevitable.

For most merchants who do export trade, it is impossible for them to hire a ship to transport the goods over there. It is very likely that the shipping cost is higher than the value of the order itself.

Therefore, in the past ocean trade was only the shipowners buying and reselling the goods themselves.

Nowadays, there are more and more small manufacturers participating in international trade. They are unable to hire a ship, and it is more likely that they cannot even fill a container.

At this time, merchants engaged in port trade came into being. For example, A, he specializes in the route to the west coast of the United States. Then, merchants who need to send goods there will send their goods to A.

So, is it possible to send the container directly to the west coast at this time?

Still can't!

A container ship transports an extremely large quantity each time. If the quantity is not enough, it will never make a trip, and the waiting time for the goods is too long.

Therefore, short-distance cargo ships came into being. They sent containers from various surrounding cities to large port cities such as Hong Kong Island and Xingcheng. After sorting here, they could quickly make up enough containers to go to the west coast, and then transship them again.

And there are many cities on the west coast, which still need to continue sorting and transshipment.

This is the meaning of the existence of large container ports, which are similar to express delivery, the difference is the size of the goods.

"Yes, Mr. Sean also knows that the Strait of Malacca is a key channel connecting Southeast Asia and the Western world, and the Lion City has been a natural port city since ancient times. Now that communications around the world are becoming more frequent, our development strategy for Xingcheng Among them, port transshipment is a very important part.”

"We will strive to build a brand-new, global port city and make our own contribution to the world's maritime trade."

Sean raised his hands and applauded with a smile, "I'm very glad that we can agree on the development prospects of ocean trade. I also see the container transshipment trade, so I hope to invest in the port of Xingcheng to help you , complete port construction faster.”

Li Zhilong did not directly refuse, but said with a smile: "I am very glad that Mr. Xiao En can lend a helping hand. The construction of an international port cannot be completed by one person or one organization alone. We need the help of many people."

"However, the matter is of great importance. We still need further consultations. I hope Mr. Xiao En can understand."

"Of course." Sean smiled and stretched out two fingers, "I offer 300 million dollars, and I want 30% of the shares."

"It's impossible!" Li Zhilong quit immediately.

Li Zhilong's idea is to pay a small share in exchange for Sean's cooperation to ensure the safety of the air route, and at the same time facilitate the opening of air routes and customs in the United States and the Caribbean.

However, this is by no means a reason to give away 30% of the shares.

This is not a question of money or not.

For a large port city to develop, in addition to its important location, it also needs many advantages.

Transshipment speed, price, route development, receiver inspection efforts, customs clearance speed, security, etc.

It's not just that if you have money, you can buy shares. There are more rich people, and the oil tycoons have money!

But they can't handle the customs of each country.

Of course, money is not the most important thing, but it can't be so little!

One hundred million and 30% of the shares, is this a robbery?

Before Xiao En was in Kwai Tsing, Hong Kong Island, the price of winning a transshipment terminal was 100 million!

What Sean wants now is 30% of the entire Xingcheng port business, so of course they won't do it.

"Don't say that." Sean said with a smile: "As we all know, the terrain near the Strait of Malacca is extremely complicated, and it has been the most frequent place for pirates since ancient times."

"Of course, a certain level of security can still be maintained, but that is because the port transshipment business on Xingcheng's side has not grown."

"As the business expands, there will inevitably be some people who will turn into pirates and put their ideas on the passing cargo ships."

"They are pirates when they take up arms, and they are assholes when they put down their weapons. How to catch them and what to do?"

"The large cargo ships of some big countries are fine, but what about some small countries or small companies?"

"They don't have such a strong self-protection ability, so they must be affected."

"The Umbrella Company can easily solve these troubles and ensure that the route is unimpeded. We will send anyone who thinks about this route to see their God!"

Sean still kept a smile on his face.

But Li Zhilong only has MMP in his heart!

The pirate you speak of is not yourself!

"We in Xingcheng have our own fleet, and we have been working on expanding our sea power. We still have the ability to simply fight pirates." Li Zhilong said rather forcefully.

"No, no, no, you are too optimistic." Sean sneered and shook his head, "How far is your control range?"

"5 nautical miles or 10 nautical miles, or 30 nautical miles!"

"Out of this range? Are you sure you still have the ability to ensure the safety of passing ships?"

"Even if you can, how much will it cost?"

"The Strait of Malacca is the most convenient communication channel, but it is not the only one. The Sunda Strait is also a good channel, although it is only a little farther away."

Xiao En leaned over and stared at Li Zhilong, a sense of oppression shrouded Li Zhilong directly, "What do you think?"

"You, you are robbing, you are threatening, and you are breaking international agreements." Li Zhilong's head was covered with fine beads of sweat, and his voice was not low, but there was no strength in his words. Instead, he seemed to be bluffing .

A small country that only achieved independence in 1965, if not for some special reasons, someone else would have divided it up a long time ago!

Xingcheng's ability to achieve independence, maintain independence, and achieve a certain international status is largely due to the rabbit's glory!

There are many countries bigger than Xingcheng. Why can Xingcheng occupy the key geographical location of the Strait of Malacca?

Larger countries have been infiltrated by Europe and the United States and divided into civil wars all day long. How can this small country maintain prosperity and stability?

Are Americans getting nicer?

Is John Bull not stirring shit?

neither!

Xingcheng is largely a showcase to show the north how rich the Chinese can become under capitalism.

Of course, WW can also do this job, but even Laomei can't guarantee that WW can keep jumping, who knows when it will be used by force.

After all, when the north was still so backward 30 years ago, it challenged the 18-nation coalition forces to push the front to 38°.

However, because Xingcheng is too far away and is an independent country, it is impossible for this kind of thing to happen.

In addition to the display board, it also serves as a sign board.

The national concept of the Chinese is too strong, because the history has never been broken, the idea of ​​grand unification has always been deeply rooted in the hearts of the Chinese, and the extraordinary concept of the country makes the people here have a strong cohesion and resistance to pressure.

Don't look at everyone shouting hating the country or something, if you really want Wutong, you see if everyone donates or not, it's over!

Don't think about watching fan dramas all day long and engaging in two stinging apes. If you really want to fight across the sea, you can see if you are enthusiastic about joining the army and it's over!

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was such a chaotic situation, warlords fought in chaos, Western powers supported different warlords, and tried their best to sow discord, any country would definitely split.

But in the end, it is not that the great unification has been completed, and it can be said that it will be determined later, which is impossible to happen in the Western world.

The history of the Western world has determined that their national concepts are weak, not only do they not have the idea of ​​grand unification, but they like to engage in division and independence.

Once a region calls for independence, it will be supported by the entire Western world...

This is simply unimaginable in the north.

It's not that the middle and upper levels of the white world can't see the crux of the problem. Resistance, democracy, and freedom. The concepts left over for thousands of years have penetrated into the DNA and cannot be changed at all.

Therefore, the Western world has been trying to create a division in the north, but it has been unable to achieve it.

The division of a remote region may seem to have little economic impact, and it may also reduce the burden, and it is not good for the Western world, but the psychological and political impact it causes is huge and far-reaching.

The only result is Xingcheng.

Of course, in addition to targeting the north, it is also for his own consideration.

Just look at the Suez Canal and the Panama Canal. You can see the difference between the control of this geographical opening in the hands of Egypt and Panama.

If this important shipping port is in the hands of Indonesia or Malay, then based on the characteristics of the two countries, it will definitely charge a high fee. Not to mention extremely unsafe, it will also greatly increase the income because of this income.

But in the hands of Xingcheng, because of the isolation of the Chinese, it is impossible to charge here, which is very in line with the interests of European and American countries.

Similarly, for rabbits, this important route to Europe cannot fall into the hands of Indonesia or Malays. With the urine of monkeys, if there are no tigers in the mountains, they will get stuck on your neck at any time to show their existence.

Therefore, under the circumstances of multi-party game, Xingcheng exists.

"It's not that it's enough to simply occupy the channel of the Strait of Malacca. After leaving Malacca, you have to go through the Great Strait and the Ten Degrees Strait to enter the Indian Ocean."

"Do you think Xingcheng's fleet can control the safety here?"

"Even after 50 years, Li Zhilong, this is an impossible task!"

"Such a big piece of cake, if you want to eat alone, you are not afraid of being overwhelmed!?" Xiao En stretched out his hand and touched Li Zhilong's chest.

"In addition, I can guarantee that the air routes and customs in the Caribbean region will be unimpeded."

"Think about it carefully, the matter is not in a hurry." After that, Xiao En stood up with a smile, and walked out on his own.

Only Li Zhilong with an ugly face was left in the small conference room.

Damn it, I knew that this guy would have nothing good to do when he came to the door!

Originally thought that no matter how big the appetite was, it was nothing more than an annual military expenditure of 100 million U.S. dollars, but never expected that this bastard actually took a fancy to the new port that Xingcheng was preparing to build.

For Xingcheng, it was like a bolt from the blue, a cauldron was buckled down for no reason.

Li Zhilong couldn't sit still any longer, he quickly got up and walked out, he had to inform his father about this matter quickly, and let the old man make a decision.

Having completed the second threat of the three-threat plan, Sean slept refreshed that night.

When they set off early the next morning, the Li family father and son still came to see them off, with happy smiles on their faces.

As if what happened yesterday never happened.

How else?

Do not send off, let this greedy guy continue to stay here?

So it's not sure what will happen.

It's better to hurry up and send people away.

The two sides smiled and shook hands to say goodbye. Before leaving, Sean gave Li Zhilong a big hug and patted Li Zhilong's back hard.

"Good brother, I'm waiting for your good news!"

After all, turn around and board the ship.

Standing on the side of the boat and waving goodbye.

It was tacit understanding on both sides.

Before Xiao En showed a tough attitude that was bound to win, it was impossible for the Li family father and son to compromise.

If you can struggle, why not struggle, in case this greedy wolf dog is driven out.

What if, right?

What if, what if John Bull couldn't understand Sean's rampant attitude and felt that Sean was destroying their international status in Southeast Asia.

What if, what if the United States feels that Xiao En's practice of provoking enemies all over the world will make the international environment of the United States worse, and feel the pressure.

right!

Even if you have to compromise, it's impossible to be so fast!

The huge battleship in the field of vision was getting smaller and smaller. Li's father and son looked at each other, sighed, turned and took away the people.

...

The battleship cut through the waves and continued to move towards Sri Lanka.

Sean called Bill who was far away in the United States.

Forewarned is forearmed, without prejudging the waste!

If you want to pluck wool from a country, you must be fully prepared and not show any flaws!

"Before you were asked to buy more waste products from the military, how is this going?"

"I bought 20 small gunboats, not big, with a displacement of about 150 tons, a length of about 20 meters, and a 57mm gun. They are currently deployed near the coast of Colombia." Bill replied with a smile and asked: "What, do you have any new plans?"

"Well, there are!" Sean thought for a while and said, "Get five of these small gunboats, and buy some torpedo boats, with a displacement of about 50 tons. After refitting, the speed must be fast enough, at least to reach 50 knots." , please contact Yuri, he has some rapid-fire guns, which are old models from World War II, but they are well maintained, install them on the speedboat for me."

"Wow, what are you going to do?" Bill knew that Sean was going to do something when he heard it, and immediately regained his energy.

"Ahem, it's not that I'm going to do something, I'm a serious businessman, what can I do?" Sean coughed softly, "I heard, I heard that Southeast Asia is not very peaceful recently, and there are always some pirates. "

Hahahaha, Bill laughed.

Sean mentioned the matter of pirates a year ago.

At that time, it was said that the Caribbean Sea was not safe, and there might be pirates, but then Sean got the Killing-class missile expulsion.

Many drug criminals in Colombia also quickly subsided, and the Caribbean region was safe.

Unexpectedly, all of a sudden, pirates appeared in Southeast Asia!

Dude, this pirate looks like something that fell from the sky.

"Torpedo boats are not easy to handle. We don't have such a thing in the army. Well, no, some of them are used as target boats, and the engines are so fucking rotten."

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up, hurry up!" Sean urged.

"No matter how anxious you are, I can't give you a few out of thin air. Besides, it will be shipped as far as Southeast Asia, purchased, refurbished, reinstalled with engines and rapid-fire guns, and sent to you. It will take at least 2 months !"

Sean blinked and blinked, and he said the same thing, the long-distance water cannot quench the near-thirst.

"Then why don't you do this, get 5 gunboats here first." Sean thought for a while and said, "You guys go to Thailand first, buy some speedboats here for modification, and start with one."

"As for torpedo boats, don't relax, speed up, by the way, keep the ability to launch torpedoes and mines."

"Okay, I see!" Bill hung up the phone and immediately began to arrange.

The relationship with the military is very good, and they have bought scraps many times. It's just a matter of a phone call. The people in the US military are usually idle, and they are very happy to find something for them to do.

After placing an order with the Navy, Bill contacted Cartagena.

Mobilize 5 gunboats to expedition to Southeast Asia.

It stands to reason that this kind of gunboat with a displacement of about 200 tons is used for offshore defense, but this does not mean that this kind of gunboat cannot go to the ocean.

This near sea refers to the combat radius. The fuel, daily necessities and weapons stored by the battleship itself cannot support long-term combat.

With more fuel on board, you can still sail around the world.

...

After hanging up Bill's phone, Sean immediately called Yuri, considering that there will be a large number of pirates in Southeast Asia in the future.

Therefore, there must be some weapons and ammunition reserves here...

You Rui left Hong Kong Island later than himself, so there is still time to turn around and prepare!

After finishing these, Sean lay on the bed alone and began to think about the problem.

The emergence of pirates is due to the arrival of the age of great navigation.

Now, maritime shipping far surpasses ancient times, so the reappearance of pirates is inevitable!

There are no pirates at sea, so why do you need a maritime security company?

Which came first, the criminals or the police?

There must be criminals first!

If there are no criminals, what do we need the police for?

In the same way, just because there are pirates in the sea again, the umbrella has a lot of business!

This complementary causal relationship must be clearly distinguished!

Therefore, the reappearance of pirates in Southeast Asia has its historical inevitability!

So, what about the Caribbean?

What about the Panama Canal?

What about the Suez Canal?

Will pirates also appear?

Taking the Caribbean region as an example, whether pirates appear or not depends on the attitude of the US military's naval bases all over the Caribbean...

Those American soldiers are all creatures that rely on the lower body to think, so if you control their dicks, you control their bodies...

Sean picked up the phone and dialed out.

"Jonas, wake up!"

"Fack!" Jonas took the phone away from his ear, and Sean's voice was so loud that his ears hurt.

"Arrange something for you."

"What?" Jonas looked serious.

"To buy a passenger ship, you must have at least 100 rooms, refit it, make it more luxurious, get hundreds of women on it, and provide services to those US military bases in the Caribbean."

"Dock nearby, and let the group of U.S. troops who are idle in the base get on board to be cool."

"Shit!" Jonas cursed excitedly, "Your idea is so fucking beautiful, why didn't anyone provide this kind of service when we were soldiers!"

"You know what, you're saving those sissy anorectals!"

"Those smelly guys will definitely think of you as God if they hear this news, and they will shout your name when they erupt hard, Sean!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

"Fuck you, don't disgust me!" Sean rolled his eyes fiercely, and couldn't help getting goosebumps all over his body when he thought of that scene.

Jonas laughed for a while, and after a few words of bickering, he said, "However, I don't have time for this. I'm too busy recently."

"Los Angeles isn't what Newark was back then. The Greater Los Angeles area alone has more people than New Jersey!"

"The forces are complex. You are not here, the base of the umbrella is not here, and our foundation is not here. It is difficult for me to open the Los Angeles market by myself. I have been devastated recently."

"You can't even imagine that I was shot a few days ago. Fortunately, the reaction speed was fast enough and the security force around me was not weak. The attacker was killed on the spot, but a brother was shot and injured."

"There is such a thing!" Sean frowned, his voice full of anger, "Why didn't you tell me!"

"What's the use of telling you, this is Los Angeles. After the riots, the current environment is eager for peace and stability. Whoever makes a big deal at this time will be under tremendous pressure."

"If we want to gain a foothold here, we must first encroach on the interests of many people. Now it is not the past." Jonas sighed.

"Once upon a time in New Jersey, we were the challengers, like you said, barefoot and not afraid to wear shoes, now we're fucking wearing shoes, those who lost their jobs, they have nothing to lose, jump out and fight Isn't it normal for black guns to retaliate!"

"It's just a fucking small gang, a few people, what's the use of telling you about this, and what if you can use hundreds of soldiers to fight a war!"

"Now it's my fucking time to think about impact and security!"

Sean was tongue-tied, not knowing what to say for a while.

This is a story of a dragon slayer turning into a dragon and a new dragon slayer appearing again.

"Forget it, you tighten up your security, don't you really get your head blown off!" After chatting with Jonas for a few more words, Sean hung up the phone.

Considering that Jonas is really busy, the Los Angeles Police Department needs to redefine the interests. The interests of the grassroots police and the interests of the middle and high-level must be guaranteed.

Re-plan the market, win over a group of people, and attack a group of people.

Dealing with judges, dealing with clients...

The base camp is not in Los Angeles, and things are troublesome.

After thinking about it, this matter should be arranged for Jeff the Big Sparrow.

There are many beautiful women in Colombia, and the price is also cheap, and it does not start from the mainland of the United States, so the negative impact is less.

Of course, it's just an arrangement now, and it's still too early to actually take action.

Passenger ships need to be purchased, decorated and recruited women.

And for the first time to make a trip, Sean will come forward in person.

In theory, this kind of business can be started by anyone and can make money, but in reality it is a completely different matter.
